What NOT To Do In A Fight / Wednesday, Period III / Week 11

"I apologize for not being here last week," Ghanima said once the class had assembled in the Danger Shop. "I had...family things which I had to attend to."

"Today, we are going to discuss the pros and cons of trying to include dancing into your fighting style."

"Being naturally graceful does not always translate to graceful fighting," Ghanima said, sitting down on the floor to begin stretching and warming up. "Hand-to-hand combat is often brutal, short, and wonderfully violent."

"There are styles that incorporate dance, such as Capoeira, or there's the drunken boxing. Some fights may even look like ballet, tango, syncronized like the DDR game at the arcade, or other dance.

"So everyone stretch out, today I'm going to teach you some basic tango steps."

Ringo was pumped. Mostly because dancing was really awesome, and she wanted to learn more about it even if it didn't teach her anything about fighting.

Ringo was practically (okay, literally) bouncing up and down in excitement as she looked around for someone to dance with.

Jalian nodded to Ringo. "Do you know what this tango is?"

Jalian watched, following both the spinning blades and Ghanima's movements carefully, but not interrupting.

Once she was done, Jalian gave her a little bow and asked, "Are the discs only for training with the scythes, or do you use them together as weapons, too?"

"Some kind of dance?" Ringo grinned through a sort of helpless shrug. "I think there's some phrase about it requiring two people?"

Jalian nodded and took it, looking it over curiously. "These particular ones - there are others?"
